Am pleas seemed to approach the stage of hysteria, the judge, with stern emphasis, laid down a final warning against her repeated out bursts of (motions. Miss 8t. Pierre, recalled to th offered by the defense about her past life and other alleged lovers, became so excited at one point thut Judge Koth was furred to dismiss the jury while he reprimanded her. Hut ton watched the proceedings with Interest. The outbreak was engendered when the attractive brunette was avked if she had ever s"n Mrs. I atherine Kisoff before. The witness face flunhed and she cried: "I've never seen that vicious woman betore in my life. At this remark .prompted by Mrs. Eisoff's testimony that Miss Ht. Pierre had entered a hospital in 1U1.M or a uencute operation, Jimge Koto halted the trial and excused the jurors. '1 am convinced, Miss St. Pierre, that you made that la at answer deli berately in an attempt to prejudice the jury against Mrs. Eisoff, 1 huve warned you before that if thpre were any more unwarranted remarks hum you, 1 would have to taint ion you b loro ine jury, j no next tirm l Him II take the chance of a reversible rror to caution you before the jury."

I am the only one who can defend myself. Please give me the right to do so. These vicious people have lied about mo so terribly and I can't explain or say anything." 'You have had all the opportunity the law allows you," the court said: "You keen auiet unless von're ad dressed. I'm tired of having you chime in all the time with side re marks and statements." bhe denied she had called Hutton "simple, a big fat slob, sissy and prevaricator," or that she drank hurd liquor, lost her riding breeches at a party and had affairs with a number of men. Questioned about a fight with her sister, Mrs. Gladys Cussill, who had testified against her, sbe said: I dodged the fish bowl she threw at me but I got all wet. Sh& slapped me, skinned my nose and gave me two black eyes. I grabbed her and bent her way over backwards and she tor my beautiful silk pajamas." The fight, Mrs. Cassill testified, occurred over one of Miss St. Pierre's former hns bands. ' Later Hutton, husband of the evan gelist, Aimee McPherson Hutton, found himself the center of a stage of gaping mouths as a woman approached and commanded him: . ; "Let me see your hands.M The choir singer protested but finally gave way to her insistence. Glancing at the plump palms, she told him: "You are going to lose your present wife and marry again during this life. You are ruled by your heart rather than by your head." Hutton, looking rather dated for a moment, burst into a laugh, pocketed bis bands and walked away with the remark: "I hope 1 never see her again." SCHOOL PETITIONS STORY .
